Williamsburg Earth Tone Oil Colors
	#1501 Raw Sienna Natural Iron Oxide - PBr7 Semi-Opaque / Lightfast Rating 1 - Excellent A beautiful, transparent, golden undertone, very luminous in washes and glazing. Relatively strong.
	#1521 Burnt Sienna Natural Iron Oxide - PBr7 Semi-Opaque / Lightfast Rating 1 - Excellent Rich, warm, mahogany undertone. Luminous and cherry-reddish in washes and glazing. Relatively strong.
	#1621 Raw Umber Natural Iron Oxide - PBr7 Semi-Opaque / Lightfast Rating 1 - Excellent A coolish and very slightly greenish umber. Mixes with white to an almost neutral grey.
	#1661 Burnt Umber Natural Iron Oxide - PBr7 Semi-Opaque / Lightfast Rating 1 - Excellent Very warm and velvety.
	#1671 Red Umber Natural Iron Oxide - PBr7 Semi-Opaque / Lightfast Rating 1 - Excellent A burnt umber that is so warm it takes on a true reddish quality. Almost a mid-step between Burnt Umber and Burnt Sienna.
	#1484 Brown Pink Hydrated Synthetic Iron Oxide - PR101 Semi-Transparent / Lightfast Rating 1 - Excellent Similar to Stil de Grain in history and chemistry but with a beautiful, transparent, cordovan color. Its beauty is best seen when used transparently. Absolutely permanent.
	#1512 Cyprus Orange Natural Iron Oxide - PBr7 Dipyrrolopyrrol - PO73 Semi-Opaque / Lightfast Rating 1 - Excellent Not unlike Raw Sienna, but with surprisingly clear, transparent, orange undertones. You can almost feel the warm Mediterranean sun in this color.
	#1631 Brown Umber Natural Iron Oxide - PBr7 Semi-Opaque / Lightfast Rating 1 - Excellent The warmest raw umber we have ever seen - Not as red or as finely ground as the Burnt Umber.
	#1494 Dutch Brown Synthetic Iron Oxide - PBr6 Semi-Transparent / Lightfast Rating 1 - Excellent Very close to Cassel Earth--but absolutely permanent. In mixing if you find umbers to be too "smoky or atmospheric", you will find this to be very crisp and rich. This is also a very versatile pigment--we have seen it used to create viscous, tarry looking surfaces as well as very lustrous, sleek rich browns like fine mink fur.
	#1641 Turkey Umber Natural Iron Oxide - PBr7 Semi-Opaque / Lightfast Rating 1 - Excellent Phthalocyanine Green - PG7 Very briny with a pronounced greenish tone.
	#1022 Bohemian Green Earth Natural Iron Oxide - PG23 Another natural Terra Verte but cooler than our Italian and also stronger in tinting and covering strength.
	#1561 Brown Ochre Natural Iron Oxide - PBr7 Opaque / Lightfast Rating 1 - Excellent Very earthy, extra-deep, yellow ochre - so deep we call it brown.
	#1581 Red Ochre Natural Iron Oxide - PR102 Opaque / Lightfast Rating 1 - Excellent Extremely dense, very strong covering power. Earthier than the Mars colors.
	#1601 Spanish Earth (Purple Ochre) Natural Iron Oxide - PR102 Opaque / Lightfast Rating 1 - Excellent A dense earthy ochre - more violet than the red ochre - with an interesting liverish quality.
	#1401 Yellow Ochre Natural Iron Oxide - PY43 Opaque / Lightfast Rating 1 - Excellent A naturally occurring yellow ochre from Georgia. Stronger tinting than the Italian Yellow Ochre, in hue somewhere in between the Italian and the Lemon Ochre.
	#1464 Stil de Grain Hydrated Synthetic Iron Oxide - PY42 Semi-Transparent / Lightfast Rating 1 - Excellent The Dutch made this with roots. A warm, transparent gold. Perfect in glazing.
	#875 Quinacridone Goldish Brown Quinacridone - PO48 Diarylide - PY83 Semi-Transparent / Lightfast Rating 1 - Excellent Really shows its beauty and versatility in mixing and glazing. A deep rich brownish gold like a deep smoky topaz.
	#1541 Yellow Ochre Burnt Natural Iron Oxide - PBr7 Opaque / Lightfast Rating 1 - Excellent Warm, mellow, walnut brown.
	#1681 Van Dyke Brown Natural Earth - PBr9 Semi-Opaque / Lightfast Rating III - VERY POOR - FUGITIVE Genuine Van Dyke Brown. Mixed with white it gives a neutral grey. Beautiful sepia-like washes. VERY POOR LIGHTFASTNESS
	#1792 German Earth Natural Iron Oxide - PBlk11 Opaque / Lightfast Rating 1 - Excellent One of the most versatile blacks we've encountered. When used straight, it is very much like a traditional Cassell Earth or Van Dyke Brown, but when white is added ti cools down and becomes bluish - almost moonstone-like. Dries with a soft matte surface.
	#1382 Mars Orange Synthetic Iron Oxide - PY42 Opaque / Lightfast Rating 1 - Excellent Brilliant and mellow like freshly shined copper. The French call this Flesh Ochre.

	#1362 Mars Yellow Deep Synthetic Iron Oxide - PY42 Opaque / Lightfast Rating 1 - Excellent Warmer and very slightly redder than the light. Sometimes called Yellow Ochre or Yellow Ochre Deep.
	#1342 Mars Yellow Light Synthetic Iron Oxide - PY42 Opaque / Lightfast Rating 1 - Excellent Like highlights on polished brass - very luminous and bright. Often called Yellow Ochre Pale.
